IT IS TIME FOR AMERICAN CITIZENS TO TAKE BACK THEIR COUNTRY FROM THE RADICAL SOCIALIST LEFT BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE.

For over a century, the left has used the federal government to fund and promote its socialist agenda. Under the guise of flowery titles like the New Deal or Great Society, Democrat administrations have spent money America doesn’t have on programs America doesn’t need. Each of these leftist causes are sold to the public as temporary solutions to existential threats. But their actual purpose is to vest more control in the federal government and advance the left’s partisan objectives at the expense of individual liberty.

In this shocking and scathing exposé of corruption and morally bankrupt ideas, Buck reminds us of the Founders’ vision for a limited federal government, “of the people and for the people,” designed to protect personal liberty by adhering to federalism and separation of powers—and how progressives have methodically chipped away at these bedrock principles to consolidate power in a government detached from those it is supposed to serve.

Ideologies that attempt to supplant private decision-making with centralized state control cannot persist in a free society without pervasive deception and state-sanctioned violence. 

Buck argues we are closer to the tipping point than most Americans realize. This book is about recognizing warning signs while there is still time. It is about understanding how we arrived at a system that cannot seem to stop spending. And it is about what must change if we want to preserve a country where government exists to serve the people.

The threat to America has never been greater. The United States is on the precipice of defaulting on its national debt, losing the dollar bankruptcy of Social Security and Medicare, and becoming isolated from once-close trading partners. While the left cheers America’s demise so it can further suppress liberty, the world order will fall into a nuclear armed chaos. The time to act is now, and this book will arm every citizen with the knowledge and strategy to make a difference.

THE MACHINE DOES NOT SLOW DOWN UNLESS IT IS FORCED TO. 

THE BUCK STOPS HERE!

The facts around spending are grim. The United States debt continues to rise. We are not cutting nearly enough to make it stop. Entitlement programs continue to grow, and members of Congress who insist that we do something about it are often told that they’re “not being team players.” The only way to restore sanity is to keep digging, keep paying attention, and keep spreading the message that we need to take responsibility for the money we spend as citizens of the United States. If not, we will be setting up our children, our grandchildren, and our great grandchildren for disaster.

To stop that from happening, citizens should demand that Congress do the following now:

  • Make DOGE permanent; publish what they uncovered and what they cut.
  • Take steps to stop spending more than we take in, while acknowledging that
  • we probably can’t do it for decades.
  • Eliminate all earmarks and pet-project spending.
  • Produce serious committee oversight plans that are focused on real problems.
  • Close the Department of Education.
  • Find more agencies that need to be defunded, returning the United States to rule by “democracy” instead of “bureaucracy.”

These steps might seem huge, but they aren’t. If nothing else, they are a start. If we’re going to begin seriously addressing the spending problem in this country, it will need to start with citizens, not members of Congress. The work Elon Musk did with DOGE was an important and heroic start to this fight. Now the rest of us need to finish it.

But first, we need to wake up and realize that something is wrong.

The rise of socialism—which seems so alluring at first, just like so many terrible ideas from throughout history—will be the death of freedom.

IT IS UP TO US TO STOP IT!

KEN BUCK (WINDSOR, COLORADO) is a former five-term Congressman from Colorado, lawyer, and author of four books, including Crushed: Big Tech's War on Free Speech.

Congressman Buck served as the Ranking Member on the House Judiciary Subcommittee on Antitrust, Commercial and Administrative Law, and also served on the House Judiciary Committee and the House Foreign Affairs Committee; the Subcommittee on Immigration and Citizenship;  and on the House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on Asia, The Pacific, and Nonproliferation.

Buck learned the value of hard work from his grandfather, who opened a shoe repair store in Greeley in the 1930s. One of three brothers, he worked his way through high school, college, and law school as a janitor, truck driver, furniture mover, and ranch hand.

After law school, Buck worked for Congressman Dick Cheney (R-WY) on the Iran-Contra Investigation and then became a prosecutor with the U.S. Department of Justice. In 1990, he joined the Colorado U.S. Attorney’s Office where he became the Chief of the Criminal Division.

In 2002, Buck joined Hensel Phelps Construction Co. in Greeley as a business executive. Starting in 2004, Buck was elected Weld County District Attorney three times. He led a staff of more than sixty people with a strong record of criminal prosecution and crime prevention. Under his leadership, the crime rate in Weld County dropped 50%, one of the best records in the country.

Buck is a Christian and a leader in his profession and community. He has volunteered and served on the boards of many important community groups. As District Attorney, Buck brought together community leaders to create the Juvenile Assessment Center. The Center has helped more than two thousand kids and their families get back on the right path in life.

Buck’s son Cody graduated from West Point and served in the U.S. Army and his daughter Kaitlin works as a business executive in Colorado.

The author lives & works in the Boulder metro area and Washington, D.C.
